The blood platelet counts of a group of women have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 246.9 and a standard deviation of 6

9.3 (All units are 1000 cells/l.) Using the empirical rule, find each approximate percentage below. a. What is the approximate percentage of women with platelet counts within 1 standard deviation of the mean, or between 177.6 and 316 2? b. What is the approximate percentage of women with platelet counts between 39.0 and 454.8? a. Approximately % of women in this group have platelet counts within 1 standard deviation of the moan, or between 177.6 and 316.2. (Type an integer or a decimal. Do not round.)

Answer:

The approximate percentage of women with platelet counts within 1 standard deviation of the mean, or between 177.6 and 316.2 is 68%.

The approximate percentage of women with platelet counts between 39.0 and 454.8 is 99.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean : \mu = 246.9

Standard deviation : \sigma = 0.49

Empirical rule :

1 ) 68% of the data lies within 1 standard deviation of mean  

This means 68% of data lies between: \mu-\sigmato \mu+\sigma

2) 95% of the data lies within 2 standard deviation of mean  

This means 95% of data lies between: \mu-2\sigma to\mu+2\sigma

3) 99.7% of the data lies within 3 standard deviation of mean

This means 99.7% of data lies between: \mu-3\sigma to\mu+3\sigma

Now to find the approximate percentage of women with platelet counts within 1 standard deviation of the mean, or between 177.6 and 316. 2

Use rule 1: \mu-\sigmato \mu+\sigma

246.9-69.3to 246.9+69.3

177.6to 316.2

So, according to rule 1, 68% of the data lies within 1 standard deviation of mean i.e. 68% of the data lies between 177.6 and 316.2.

Now to find  the approximate percentage of women with platelet counts between 39.0 and 454.8?

Use rule 3: \mu-3\sigma to\mu+3\sigma

\mu-3\sigma to\mu+3\sigma

39to 454.8

So, According to rule 3 : 99.7% of the data lies within 3 standard deviation of mean  i.e. 99.7% of data lies between  39.0 and 454.8

Answer:

y=2x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find the y-intercept of this graph whic in this case is -3. Then we plot two pints on the graph and caculate the rise over run which is 2/1=2. Finally, we get the equation- y=2x-3.

Rate of change from X = 15 to X = 19.
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

26%

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract the old amt from the new amt, then divide by the old amt:

19-15/15 = 4/15 = 26.6%. Rounded to the nearest tenth it would be 26%.
